Same here, my car gets misty if I turn the air recirculation on. After the weather turned cold screen gets foggy suddenly, which was very dangerous several times (passing a truck at night). I have the ionization feature add-on, if that matters.
Anyone else seeing this often? Never had a car where recirculating air will produce so much humidity.
My experience is the opposite. Recirculation has always resulted in steamed up windows in every car I have owned for the last 50 years!

Now most cars have air conditioning it isn't as bad as it used to be and is sometimes OK if few people and no wet clothes in the car but for me it is what I have expected.

As a result I only ever use recirculation briefly to avoid smells and smoky exhausts and go back to normal as soon as I possibly can.

Mind you, in England I have had plenty of opportunity to learn about it.

There’s a fundamental flaw with the windscreen de-mister, as the centre piece has a 5-6 inch area with no vents, which leaves an expanding area clouded when trying to clear the screen.
